  • "The strength and affirmation I gained from your course made me realize it was the best possible thing that could have happened! I do plan to finish the course. Fortunately, I was snatched up by another organization in about 5 minutes and I have begun my own grants consulting and community outreach consulting business. Thank you for providing me with a path, a template, and resources - I know I am not crazy, that I do have value, and sometimes you have to cut your losses and move on. Just let it go . . ."

  • "Sean's Executive Director MasterClass gave me newfound confidence that I had previously lacked as a first-time ED of a grassroots nonprofit. It was incredible getting to learn from someone with such a wealth of experience and expertise!"

  • "This lesson really helped my find the right terminology to address the stagnation in our organization. I would love more resources on the theory of change, strategy, and doing things right vs doing the right things. We are coming to the end of a three year strategic plan that heavily emphasized doing things right. However, none of the goals for revenue development and communication were met. If I can't change this course during my term as ED, my organization will not only be stagnant, it will be going backwards. I am excited for the opportunity to learn better strategies for community relationships and communications."

Hi, I’m Sean, the "Nonprofit Fixer!" 

I’m a coach, consultant, trainer, and strategic advisor. For the past 30+ years, I’ve helped causes, campaigns, and candidates raise millions of dollars and transformed nonprofit organizations and leaders. I’ve served in a wide variety of roles in nonprofits, including policy, communications, development, grassroots organizing, direct service, board leadership, and five stints as an executive director. I’ve worked on a wide range of issues including LGBTQ equality, reproductive justice, voting access, bullying prevention, climate change, and more. 

You can see my work covered in media outlets internationally and I’ve received numerous awards and recognitions from the sector, the City of Detroit and the State of Michigan. I collaborate with leading nonprofit names like AFP, Candid, United Way, Idealware, Bloomerang, TechSoup, Wild Apricot, Funding for Good, Pamela Grow, and more. I own Mind the Gap Consulting, which offers coaching and consulting services for executive directors, boards, and fundraisers, as well as a suite of online training courses. I am a proud Detroit native but live with my husband and dog in New York City.
